If there's no light at Micro, and no road to Rolling Acres from the TV entrance, there could be traffic jams at both places.

Yeah -- just what we need, one more traffic jam! Unfortunately, the county has not kept up with the poplation growth, and the roads here are 25 years behind the times. Last week when I was making a left-hand turn on to Micro Racetrack from TV, I counted 47 cars waiting (at the stop sign) to make a left or right hand turn! That isn't the only time I've seen it very backed up.
Quite a while ago (a year or more???) I was told that Rolling Acres was eventually going to go through to 466A. If you've ever driven over Rolling Acres, north of Lake Ella, you will come to a dead end and private property. Eminent domain would have to prevail and who knows how long that would take? That probably isn't the only property owned by others between the "dead end property" and whatever else is between there and 466A. That's a huge chunk of land.
As I mentioned above, that was only heresay but one would think there has to be something on the drawing board to alleviate some of the traffic problems.
